awakeinAZ Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 My sales guy said they have only 4 more on order and they are at "Material Hold" right now. Maybe due to Flat Rock being offline. He said that would be all they order for 07. He said he only had one 07 regular coupe coming that he knows of right now. There were no 07 brochers in the sales area when I was there Sat. Seperately I ordered a Pony engine cover and the Parts Manager said "What's that????? Here is my delivery 7/8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CelticNut Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 Hey man, I like your car. White is a classy color. And it's easier to keep clean than the darker ones. Good luck with your car.

PRW302 Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 It cracks me up when I go into the various dealerships around here and I know more about the Mustang than they do. If it was my job to sell cars I would be on the net reading and trying to know everything I could about them. I too, have been getting the same statement about brochures. ((Not a slam on salesmen around the country, just the few I have talked to)) My only worry is if I wait until later in the year (Nov/Dec) to order a CS they might have stopped production on them for the year. As for the colors that White Stang that belongs to "awakeinAZ" is a beautiful car. I wish the strips on the darker color cars could be a different color so they show up. Or at least give us the option to have other colors. I still have not decided on what color I want. I wanted the Alloy color then realized that they don't make the CS in that color. Anyway, thank you all for the photo's of your new cars as they are truly awesome. I hope to join you eventually with photo's of my own GT/CS convertible....................

pouterson Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Just called VOPC and the update today was that the car was released from a Foreign assembly plant and is scheduled to arrive the week of June 30, one week earlier than the initial update stated. What foreign plant builds Mustangs, Canada? Either way, it's moving right along now!! :happy feet: Update - the car made it to the dealer. The problem is that it came in without the heated seat option that I ordered. Have to wait until Monday to get it. The dealer is installing the heated seats. The car arrived at the "ramp" on July 2. Start to finish, the order took 7 weeks from order to the ramp. It took another week to get to the dealer due to the holiday. Not bad for a GT/CS that's supposed to be in limited production. :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRW302 Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 Please explain to me what the X-Plan is and how it works. I have been reading about people asking for pins to buy their cars or trucks using the X-Plan, but I have no idea how it works. Can you go to any dealer? Can I get a pin now and use it in a few months? Our you promissed to get your car under the invoice price? Thanks in advance for the info................

I just read through the link I sent and that probably did not help much. Check with your employer and see if they have a fleet agreement with Ford. If they do they will have a code that you can put on the website I sent in the first post and you will then get a pin you can take to the dealership. When I informed the dealership I was using the X-Plan they were very receptive to me using it. They actually make more money through Ford than selling a car the regular way at invoice.

Justin Credible Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I just found out today that I'm eligible for the X-Plan. The salesman suggested it after asking who I worked for. He was straight up, and showed me several recent deals. It's the best deal other than being a Ford employee. You'll pay around invoice and Ford reimburses the dealer...and they encourage it. You have to prove employment at the company/municipalitaly/whoever so call your HR department...you can't just walk in with a P.I.N. like some are trying. Thanks Five for the pics...I'm going to reconsider the Redfire. Anyone know the benefit of the cloth top vert option? My salesman said he didn't know they were available for ,07. He said Ford is great at educating the public, but not their sales force. Obviously. It's amazing how little information these people have about their own product... Any input on the top will be appreciated. Thanks Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratnacage Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I got a PIN from BlueOvalForums and "just walked in with a PIN". It was accepted. It's easy enough, however they probably won't be able to validate your PIN if you don't actually work for an x-plan partner in which case they just sold you a car at roughly invoice. We'll sell Mustang GT's all day long at invoice anyway - no PIN required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine something is being submitted... I don't know, but it sounds like fraud to me. In any case my point was why not just find a dealer that will sell it to you at the x-plan price even without a PIN? In the end it's no different than making a deal at invoice or just below invoice. ...much better than giving some stranger on the web part of your social security number.

CelticNut Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 My dealer is offering me a Mustang GT at $500 over invoice, but made a point of telling me that if I were a member of the American Quarter Horse Association for a minimum of 60 days, that I would be eligible for a $500 rebate, thus reducing the cost of the car to invoice. (BTW, membership with the AQHA is $35.) I thought it sounded like a good deal. Am I deluding myself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BTW, membership with the AQHA is $35.) I thought it sounded like a good deal. Am I deluding myself? Maybe. AQHA is a good deal. Check with your dealer first to verify that you will buy for $500 over invoice (and know what the invoice is), but that you then plan on using your $500 rebate from AQHA. Get it in writing. Best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelticNut Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Oh yeah. The Internet sales guy and I have established a rapport; I'm pretty sure he'll honor his word. I will get it all in writing, just to be sure. He's more or less promised me the car I order will be invoice + $500. Not MSRP, not the dealer's "idea" of invoice, but the actual invoice. (I know that they actually pay less than invoice when it comes to holdbacks and all that, but I'm okay with that, since I don't have any special purchase plan.) Oh, and I joined the AQHA. Nice organization. Even if I don't have a horse! I've always LIKED horses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueOval Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 I just rec'd an X-Plan PIN from a Ford employee via their "Friends and Neighbors" program. I rec'd mine from the same website that Evilchris did. I haven't used it yet but I don't expect any problems using it. It's not a company sponsored x-plan deal... my name and info are now registered with Ford (so I can't sell or transfer the PIN). The PIN email actually came from Ford and not the person who set me up with it - he was just the "sponsor" and he's also a Ford employee. I beieve that Ford employees get 4 x-plans a year to give out. I'm going to order an '07 GT and this is just a simple way to get a great no haggle price on the car I want.

Justin Credible Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Do you get a better Deal if you work for Ford (friends and family) (X plan) or if you work for a Ford Dealership???? It's all spelled out on my quote (Redfire vert), which they're required to do. MSRP: $38,095 Invoice: $35185 A/Z Plan (employee) $33719 D Plan (Dealer) $33819 X Plan (freinds/suppliers) $35119 X Plan is a done deal for me. They're estimating 4-8 weeks. But... FDAF Assessment charge of $420 (supposedly for the dealer's share of advertising and rebates). Yeah, right...lots of those on these cars. Also said the system requires the 53B comfort Group for $575 with the GT/CS...like I need heated seats in Florida. Doesn't make sense, going back tomorrow...
